Hey y'all,

We have released a beta firmware for the Evo VIII/IX AccessPORT. Please follow the link for details.

Thanks,
Rob

 

Thank You!

 

sweet. does any one know where i can find a evo pro-tuner?

 

Sweet!!!!! I'll upload this later.

hytek369, I beleive Dynoflash in CT has the protuner. Call them up to make sure.

 

Check the website all Pro-Tuners are listed

 

Hey CPA5, Where can you find this list????

How do you like the new look, I've been reading your posts on Cobbtuning forum. Did they get back to you about the new parameters that stay at one spot? Any info you may know would be awesome since you were like the first one to have this last month.

Also, I see you got protuned by IA, 327wtq and 303whp are good numbers. Any difference in power from there canned stage 2 map??????

 

He made so much more power that I'm now considering a pro-tune even though I swore to myself I'd never get one. Cobb left a lot on the table judging by CPA5's tune.

 

Just FYI guys I did have some other things on my car that I believe helped to draw out some extra power safely.....how much more I don't know but I have to believe that the U&LICP helped as well as the Okada Projects Plasma Direct Coils.

I was shocked though by the outcome................unfortunately though to be honest after all the testing on the dyno to extract those numbers I have only felt a slight "BUTT" feeling of that increase. We believe at this point that the car may be responding differently on the street than on the dyno..........because those numbers, especially the torque, should feel waaaaaaayyyyy more powerful then it does......basically I think it should make the car feel like the diff. bet. stock and stage 2......at least on the initial tip in.


But not to say it doesn't feel better just not how it should.....unfortunately here in AZ it is pretty hot....so Stephen and I have decided that once October rolls around we'd take to the car the street and do some road tuning and see where the discrepencies are. So for the summer time I'll keep this as is.....since it sooo freeaakin hot here I drive like a grandpa anyways in this heat.....it's like my car goes into hybernation like the fellas in the snow up north....no boosting for me for a while


On the other questions...I have not heard anything yet regarding the few live parameter data fields that have not worked on my AP since I got the beta version in April. I wrote to Rob in the COBBFORUMS to see if my version is the same as this or if I too should update. We'll see

Everyone have a good and safe day!!!!!!!!!

 

Thanks CPA5. I forgot you had a few extra things on your car.

 

Good luck getting any response from dynoflash. I have sent them numerous emails and have NEVER gotten a response from the company. Horrid customer service at best

 

I just installed the new software to the AP, looks great!!!! Only issue which I beleive CPA5 is having as well is both the LTFT and STFT stay at 25%. First, what do they mean and second, is it suppose to stay at 25%? And what the hell does the EGR suppose to read and why? I know it stands for exhaust gas recirculation but just trying to understand more. Sorry for my ignorance.

 

Long term and short term fuel trim. Something about adding fuel for some reason or another. Long term is the average I think. Mine's stuck on 25% too. Before the update they moved around. Probably a glitch.

The EGR thing is reading your exhaust temp. A very high temp reading means you're about ready to melt some holes in your piston(s).

I have a question. Has anybody noticed their knock counts up or did I get some bad gas? The highest reading I ever saw before the update was 3. Since the update I've been as high as 10.

 

Yes, I've seen much higher knock counts...the highest I ever saw before this update was a 10 before I got my car tuned....after the tune, the highest I ever saw was a 3. I plugged it in and just driving down the street from work, no shifting from third, no boosting, etc, it all of a sudden showed a knock of 22??!!! That scared me because I've never see a knock reading that high...but it seemed weird since I was doing nothing that had initiated some amount of knock in the past. I do believe there is a glitch in the knock count reading on the AP now, but could be wrong (at least I hope there is a glitch after a knock count of 22)

 

Same here. I would be driving at a constant speed of 60 or 70, and bam, all of a sudden a knock count of 7.

 

Can you guys check on your AP's that have this update if the live data feed for the BAROMETRIC PRESSURE changes at all or if that stays the same as well....mine has been stayed at 7% all the time...just like the LTFT/STFT.

In regards to the Knock Sensor issue....i've had this update since early April and I have not noticed any difference in the sum values registering too high.....but still in this heat cruising at part/light throttle up hills I'll ping a 4-5 in 3rd or 4th gear....but definitely no 20counts......

ROb, can you chime in on this knock count issue?

My suggestion for everyone is to reload/re-flash whatever map you are running after the beta version update to see if it goes back to normal......good luck
